We present a technological improvement to the use of game shows to help students review for tests. Our approach uses HTML files interpreted with a browser on a computer attached to an LCD projector. The HTML files can be easily modified for use of the game in a variety of courses.
Supplement
The Chemistry Jeopardy and Who Wants to Be a Chemist Extraordinaire? games are available. The files that comprise these games can be downloaded as either ZIP or SIT files. Also, notes on the use of the games and how to modify the games are available as a PDF file.
